Chapter 92: Specular Reflection
Bai Muye saw from a distance that Guo Tong and a group of people such as Xie Sanfeng gathered next to the convoy, and when he got closer, Xie Sanfeng was directing the soldiers to classify the large and small bronze mirrors.
Not bad! It's very careful!
He hadn't told anyone about his intention to collect these bronze mirrors before, so he probably subconsciously wanted to do his job better.
He walked over and said to Xie Sanfeng: "Captain Xie, you don't need to sort these out, you can find me some wire rings and the like nearby, as long as you can fix these bronze mirrors!" β
Xie Sanfeng asked casually: "What is it for?" General White? β
Bai Muye smiled slightly: "I'll know at night!" β
"Humph! Cast a mist before somebody's eyes! Guo Tong sneered disdainfully on the side, undisguised.
Bai Muye rolled his eyes in his heart!
Pei Shiju went to be busy with local affairs, and in the afternoon, Bai Muye and Guo Tong patrolled around the city wall for a week, and the relationship did not ease, but gradually entered a white heat after several disputes!
In fact, there is no substantive contradiction, in Bai Muye's view, it is nothing more than the contradiction between the people's growing material and cultural needs and backward social production.
Bai Muye felt that he was now the "people" - what did he want, and put forward a little advanced opinions and suggestions, which was not only questioned by Guo Tong, but also sneered at him from time to time.
Nima β
Who is the boss of the two of us?
Can you keep up with the times?
Lao Tzu uses the simplest materials to maximize the work of clearing wasteland, and thinks that his hair is going to fall out, okay?
Thanks to Lao Tzu being a mercenary before, he has a little more common sense than ordinary people, otherwise he wouldn't have hiccups directly in this Sui and Tang dynasties?
β¦β¦
The twilight is falling in the west, the night has erased the last rays of the sun, the stars are dotted, and the silver moon is like a hook.
Bai Muye climbed the wall again to inspect and found that it was exactly as he thought, it was pitch black a hundred meters away from the city, but the city wall was brightly lit.
"Vice General Guo, what are you doing with so many torches?" Bai Muye asked puzzled.
Guo Tong felt inexplicable: "See clearly!" β
Be! The people below can see it very clearly!
Your soldiers have become live targets!
"This won't work! Extinguish half of it! Tell the other gates, and they're all half gone! β
Bai Muye didn't bother to explain to him, and gave an order directly.
What's wrong with the abuse of power?
Sue me!
Guo Tong really narrowed his eyes and wanted to ask, but he was directly blocked by Bai Muye.
"General Guo, give me fifty soldiers, I want to go out of the city!"
Guo Tong's question was stuck in his throat and before he could come out, his jaw dropped when he was shocked by these words.
"Out of town? Why? β
"Give our soldiers the city more vision." Bai Muye explained casually, and without waiting for him to stop him, he quickly went downstairs to personally order troops - he wouldn't help himself prepare anyway.
When Bai Muye ordered the soldiers, he called to understand the three seals.
"Captain Xie, give each person two bronze mirrors, let's go out for a walk!"
Untie the three seals, Qiu Ning was anxious on the side: "What about me?" Why don't you let me go? β
"It's not going to fight, rest you! It's really boring to stay upstairs at the city gate, take a bow and help me look at it, don't let Liu Heimin take advantage of the darkness to serve me! β
Qiu Ning quickly ran up the city wall.
Guo Tong and Qiu Ning staggered down the city wall, and said with uncertain expressions: "The last general also asks General Bai to think twice, don't be impulsive and ruin a big thing!" β
Bai Muye smiled coldly: "Don't worry, it can't be broken!" β
After that, he ignored him, turned around and raised his chin to the soldiers guarding the city gate: "Open the door, General Ben is going out of the city!" β
The city gate soldiers responded, and the four of them worked together to push away the door jam knife car, and then pulled the door bolt, and the "squeak" gate opened, and Bai Muye stuffed two mirrors into his arms and walked out of the door without saying a word!
Guo Tong saw that he was going to move seriously, and he was immediately anxious: "General Bai!" Pei Shangshu said, we must strictly guard the city, your behavior is ......"
Before he finished speaking, Bai Muye had already crossed the gate and walked away.
Guo Tong sighed in annoyance, and hurriedly ran up the city wall to look down, feeling angry and anxious.
The commander of an army only took fifty soldiers out of the city, which was unheard of!
What nonsense!
Bai Muye rubbed the bronze mirror in his hand and calculated the position of the bronze mirror.
Quite simply, he planned to increase the brightness outside the city with the help of mirror launches, at least to ensure the safety of the distance from the city wall to the moat!
The moat was filled in, and Liu Heimin's move suddenly raised the danger of the entire Yuzhou to a higher level. They had no way of knowing how much soil Liu Heimin's soldiers had filled in, and how much was still close to filling it, but their purpose was clear - to fill in the soil, cross the moat, and attack the city.
The city is understaffed, but the enemy army can attack the city from any direction, and it is not necessary to go through the city gate, any hole in the city wall can be caught and breached in one fell swoop!
It's even easier to sneak up on at night!
Originally, I had the psychology that having something is better than nothing, but when I saw these bronze mirrors, it was almost a surprise!
Needless to say, the carving process on the back is needless to say, and there are many unearthed cultural relics in the museum, all of which are exquisite and beautiful, and they are very angry!
But!
But what he didn't expect was that these bronze mirrors from the people's homes were not very gorgeous in their back carvings, but the mirrors were so smooth that Bai Muye had the illusion that these were modern imitations!
There was this kind of craft in the Tang Dynasty?
The mirror surface is polished brightly, the facial features can be seen clearly, and the people are not out of shape very much!
Thinking back to the half-human-high bronze mirror I saw in Li Shimin's tent, I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but now that I think about it, isn't it more awesome than these collected?
I'll meβ
Don't dare to underestimate the ancients anymore!
With such a flat copper mirror, although the effect of making a mirror reflection is not as good as that of the mirror of the 21st century, it is more than enough to increase the brightness.
Bai Muye chose a location, peeled off the soil there, and buried the bronze mirror in it, revealing only the mirror. Immediately, the firelight on the wall and the starlight in the sky cast bright spots in the mirror.
NICEοΌ
Even if the reflection effect is not good, with such a thing, it is easy for us to detect a large number of enemies passing by it!
Bai Muye smiled slightly with satisfaction and looked at the stunned Jiesanfeng.
"Captain Xie, find a place to put the bronze mirror! Stone cracks, grass and other hidden places are best placed diagonally, and the mirror direction is rushed to the city wall, which is used to meet the fire of the torches on the city wall, and the unobstructed place is like this, half buried in the ground. β
After speaking, he found a place with dense weeds to demonstrate the unsealing of the three seals.
Guo Tong watched Bai Muye's actions from a distance on the city wall, as if he had an understanding, because he was at a high place, and it was easy to see the light points reflected on the ground.
He leaned against the female wall and watched the people below busy back and forth.
Seeing that there are more and more bright spots on the ground, there is no great use.
Can this light still shine on people? Have one's head in the clouds!
